Legendary Creature — Human Warlock
Specialize {2} When Wyll, Pact-Bound Duelist enters, gain control of target artifact or creature an opponent controls with mana value 4 or less until the end of your next turn.
“Steal creatures, beat face, and customize your gameplan with Specialize.”
Wyll, Pact-Bound Duelist is a aggressive theft commander that specializes in temporary control effects and combat damage. When he enters, you immediately steal a small artifact or creature, giving you tempo advantage and potential card advantage if that stolen piece helps you. Your gameplan revolves around attacking early and often while using theft effects to disrupt opponents' strategies—their own creatures become your weapons. The Specialize mechanic gives you flexibility: you can pay {2} to tutor one of three modal abilities, letting you customize Wyll for different game states and opponents.
The deck wants to be lean and efficient, playing cheap interaction and theft effects that scale with Wyll's theft ability. Cards like Act of Treason effects, temporary control spells, and creatures that have ETB triggers synergize perfectly—you're stealing their threats and immediately getting value. Combine this with evasion (flying, haste enablers, or unblockable effects) to guarantee Wyll and your stolen creatures deal damage. You're racing opponents down while stripping their best early plays, which tends to leave them behind in tempo and resources.
